lyrics

She walked me to the door and I saw the look on her face and I thought,

I’m not getting any younger.
I’m not getting anywhere.
I’m not getting any smarter -
I don’t care.

In certain seconds there lie hours, days and weeks and years of night.
In wandering I see nothing, straight ahead’s a pretty sight.
I know that she don’t want me and I know that I don’t her,
but sometimes it ain’t easy to remember what you learned -

to apply those things
to try those things.

I don’t care if I'm ugly.
I don’t care that I'm weak.
You’re beautiful and dancing and your right in front of me.

Now it crushes me, your absence, like a pill I didn’t take.
Needn’t be you I guess but anyone else to help me tap my breaks.

You can drive for a damn long time alone but not forever.

I stumbled to your bedroom one night while you were asleep.
I crawled beneath the covers and I listened to you breath.
The uppers had me lifted, the downers had me low, the alcohol emotions, raging forth, I let 'em go.

I pet your head, I touched your arms, I felt your warmth, I kissed you hard, but I am still the same, alone, ashamed. Cover my brain in something hard and let it rot, because I swear that it’s not worth that much.

My heart, my blood, my thoughts, my words are nothing
My heart, my blood, my brain, my face mean nothing.
